19. SEITM Used To Assess ROI Of Sports Sponsorships
Sponsorships generated 13% of
sales, but sponsorship media only
accounted for 1% of sales.
Our approach of using SEITM engagement demonstrates a superior approach to
measuring the ROI of difficult to measure marketing events like sponsorships.
That is because the SEITMmeasures the consumer’s expressed emotional &
personal connection to the sport and the brand. 19
